Eat Your Genes: How Genetically Modified Food Is Entering Our Diet
This book basically talks about genetically modified foods from how it began and the positive and possible negative effects. Although genetically modified foods are said to be 100% safe to eat, there are still many risks involed such as ; increase production of allergens which will cause more allergic reationcs ; Antibiotic-resistant microorganisms, which means eating the GM foods may develop immunity for the bacteria living in the body. The ones benefiting from GM foods are the European union, which controls 70% of the production.
